    I just got my first workout in for the day. I did the push phase of ChaLean extreme.. if anyone else knows about the program. It's a strength program where you lift heavy weights. Anyway, I got a gooooood burn in today! I have to take my dog to get his hair cut, go to school, and then I'll be able to come home and take Teddy on a long walk to finish my second workout. I might play some Wii fit later! So far, so good!

    Ok so hear are my goals for today

    1. drink water since I have been having pop since I got sick and I am hoping to but the pop away
    2.not to eat over my calories and stop after dinner.
    3. try to go for a 30 mint walk it has been almost week since I have worked out

    I know these might sound kinda like soft goals but I have had a hard time with these goals lately.

    I am totally in! I am going to do the C25K week 2 day 1 at lunch. Walk with my hubby tonight. And do a Biggest Loser workout on the Wii! I will drink 18 glasses of water and stop eating after dinner!! YAY

    NDF: Those are not "soft goals"! You are doing what is best for you! That makes those goals AMAZING!!! You can do this!

    I am so proud of myself. I have a workout that includes jumping jacks, pushups, burpees, lunges, mountain climbers, prisoner squats, and some others . It says to do 2-3 cycles. I have been having a hard time and I only do 1 cycle. I decided to double it today for Wed. I did 2 cycles with the exception that I eliminated the 60 second plank the second time around and only did the first set of burpees. I also added forward lunges when the workout asked only for back lunges. I did good by adding to it as well as taking away. Give me a break!:tongue: I am extremely over weight and it was simply amazing that I was able to do what I did. I weigh enough to be a contestant on the biggest loser!! Anyways I am so proud and sweaty right now!!!

    hey, hey, hey...
    (I know, I know...my kids think I'm a goofy, too!)

    Zumba was outrageous this morning! The trainer is so awesome...she puts together these high impact routines (I keep it toned down a bit) that'll make ya think you're preparing for ...that dancing show everyone (but me) watches on tv...

    She mixes Latin into several other cultural dances...salsa, cumbia, reggae, bollywood, belly dancing, and some of the coolest hip hop from around the world....I just love it!

    Great Skinny Wed workout this a.m., to the gym for round to this p.m.

    I've done good today! I still have about 400 calories to spare (been really busy and burned a bunch of calories!) so I feel today was a success. I like these day-by-day challenges. It really makes it easier because it's not an overwhelming commitment! I didn't technically get in 2 workouts.. but I did help my boyfriend wax the truck and worked up a sweat doin that, so I counted it - along with my workout this morning. :bigsmile:
